I'm dealing with these red bumps at the back of my throat for the past couple of weeks. There's nothing else going on, but it does hurt when I swallow, though I'm not sure if that's connected. I've got a pic that shows what's happening. Can you help me figure out what's causing this and how to treat it?

Question

I'm noticing that whenever I bend down, liquid starts coming out of my right nostril. Is this something I should be worried about? Could you please guide me on what might be happening?

I'm really struggling with a persistent mucus issue that's been going on for about 8 years, which feels unreal to me. Lately, it's gotten worse with this smooth white mucus constantly forming in my throat. I find myself needing to clear it out every few minutes which triggers coughing too. I'm worried and could really use some guidance on what might be happening and how to manage this. Could you help with some advice?

Question

I've been experiencing this really odd crackling sound in my ears for over two years now. Whenever I swallow, speak, or even move the muscles in my ears, there's this popping or crisping noise. It started after I went scuba diving and I've also listened to a lot of loud music in the past. I've seen a doctor about it, but they said everything seems fine. I'm just not sure why both my ears still make these sounds. Do you have any thoughts on what it might be? Are there any over-the-counter treatments, herbs, or supplements that could help with this?
